Pursuant to CEQA and the CEQA <br />Guidelines, the adoption of these Ordinances is exempt from CEQA review pursuant to <br />sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because they will not <br />result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, <br />as there is no possibility they will have a significant effect on the environment and it is <br />not a "project," as defined in Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines. As a result, <br />Environmental Review Nos. 2023-115, 2023-125, and 2023-126 will be filed upon <br />adoption of these ordinances and resolution. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />There is no direct fiscal impact associated with this action. <br />EXHIBITS <br />1.
